• Kitchen to the rear of the property with space for table and chairs; bright with dual aspect windows and a door to a porch and external door with steps down to the rear garden.
• Cellars accessible both internally from the kitchen and externally from the garden.  The main cellar is full head height equipped with all utilities, a window and door, offering useful storage and potential for further development, subject to the necessary permissions.  The section to the stairs is a low-ceilinged crouch space.

• Externally, the gardens are spectacular – a generous L shaped private outdoor space with mature trees and a large expanse of lawn with enormous potential.
• To the front, there is driveway parking and a detached single garage.

Whilst this home requires a full program of refurbishment and modernisation, it presents a rare opportunity to restore and enhance a characterful property in a sought-after location.

The Area:

Mellor is a charming village bordering Marple Bridge and New Mills, just a few miles from the centre of Stockport.  It’s one of those ‘best of both worlds’ locations; close enough to the city and transport links for commuters yet sits on the very edge of the Peak District with rolling countryside on the doorstep.

Town Street in Marple Bridge is approx 0.5 miles from the property offering a small selection of independent shops, cafes and public house.  Marple railway station, with regular services to Manchester Piccadilly and Sheffield is just under a mile away.

Longhurst Lane is within the catchment of Mellor Primary School and St Mary's Catholic Primary and for those with children of secondary school age, it's Marple Hall School or Harrytown Catholic School.

The property is surrounded by an abundance of beautiful green space; those that enjoy walking or cycling will be hard pushed to find a better location with plenty of delightful areas of countryside to explore on the doorstep and just a short drive into the Peak District.  A walk into the hills will allow panoramic views of both town and countryside encompassing Edale and Kinder to the east and Greater Manchester to the west and on a clear day, as far as Runcorn.

You can contact eXp 7 days a week to arrange your viewing.  Please quote reference ND0151 when calling.
